Newton

Newton is shy at first, but once he knows that he can trust you, he will become your best bud (as shown in the video, which was taken only 2 weeks after being placed in his new foster home!) He is a healthy and beautiful boy that LOVES cat treats and wet food. He did test FIV+, which means his immune system may be a bit weaker then other kitties (otherwise, he will live a normal life) Newton is a little scared of dominant-type of cats, but is a very good friend to a low-key feline (like his;girlfriend; in the video, who happens to be a submissive little girl, purrfect fit.) He needs a quiet home where he can learn to trust humans again. He is on prescription urinary food.

Newton's Rescue Story Rescue; Date: 12/1/12: Newton showed up in November 2012 in a wooded lot with a large, bleeding wound around his neck. The initial attempts to trap him failed as he outsmarted volunteers! He then disappeared, and we worried that he passed away. But a month later, when at the same location trying to catch a DIFFERENT CAT, Newton showed up in a humane trap. Our friends at AWA in Voorhees kindly treated his wounds and neutered him, and then he was placed in foster care with Furrever Friends.
